Aoife

I was surprised that he answered. Well... I wasn't expecting to be told exactly where they were, but... okay.... Well, I'm bored, I stated, sighing.

So...Shark... if you're here, where's the rest of your guild? I inquired.

So.... I crossed the room to lean against a nearby wall. Are you going to tell me your name this time around, or do you want me to continue to call you 'Thing 2'? I asked, annoyed.

It's Thing 2! I exclaimed, jumping up. What are you doing here?! How'd you find us?! Were you following us?! I was very... hyper... for some reason. I felt like I was going a bit crazy. Kinda funny now that I look back on it.

I yawned. Oke then. 'Nighty 'night. Yawning again, I went back to sleep. Or wished I did. Shoot! Stupid insomnia.... I just stayed where I was even though I couldn't sleep.

I 'woke up' to being shook. What's that?.........Urg....... Five more minutes, sis............. I yawned and tried to go back to sleep. I was shook again. That's when everything from the previous day flooded back to me. Ryu!I shouted and sat up quickly, cracking my head against his. Oww......, I grumbled, rubbing my forehead. Gomen 'nasai..., I apologized, wincing, Are you okay?

Opal's shout shocked her out of her thoughts. She winced away from the older girl, her sensitive hears ringing. Well, should I call waitress over, or are you still picking?

Warmth........ I jumped up and searched the room for any and every blankie (Yes, blankie. Deal with it.) I could possibly find. I, surprisingly, found a total of ten blankies. Carrying them over to Ryu, I unfolded and covered him with each. I turned around and searched the room for a thermostat before remembering that this was a game. Why would they even bother having thermostats? Walking over to the other bed, I flopped down, face in my pillow, and screamed in frustration. Ten minutes later, half of which I'd spent screaming, I'd fallen asleep, hoping for Ryu to be better by morning.

I've already gotten what I wanted. Aoife sipped her tea and looked out the window at the darkening sky. Kuiaratameru! Kuiaratameru! Uro sai! Aoife quietly argued with herself in her head.

Actually, she is. I found a group of people that are sitting across from me. By the way, you should be kinder to each other. Aoife said addressing both of the girls, You never know when you could lose the other in this game. She then became a bit distant, lost in her thoughts.

Turning her piercing gaze from the boy across from her to the other girl, she forces herself to be a bit kinder. She pondered upon all the questions she'd been asked and answered just as quickly as they'd been inquired. Aoife. She ran into me. Not many. Of course. Yes. She grinned.

Giggling at the naïve girl's compliment, I stated, So, it seems my intuition was correct. There is another person with you. I ordered you two Hot Cocoa. I gestured at the mugs on the table.

Walking over to a table, Aoife sat down and looked back at the door, waiting for Opal to come back from whatever she was doing. May I get you something, madam? the waitress asked. Having the strangest feeling that she should expect someone else too, decided to order for three. Yes, may I have two hot cocoa's and jasmine tea, please? Scribbling on her notepad, the girl said, Okay, coming right out. With that, she left to the kitchen and Aoife sat waiting.

Turning to Opal, the redhead laughed. You're not being rude at all! Just where'd you get that idea? She laughed again. The diner is called Carra's Café.

Ryu! I shrieked, the iciness I once had shattering. I ran over to him and touched his face. I flinched away. He's freezing! It'd take too long to go for help, so I put my skills to work and fashioned a makeshift sled out of branches. I dragged him over to it and set him down, then quickly continued to the town. After about five minutes, I'd made my way into the little town and found an inn. Wrenching open the door, I cried out to the receptionist in desperation, Please! Can you help me?! He shot up from his chair and crossed the room, going around the desk. Upon seeing Ryu, his eyes

I looked back at Ryu, a bit hurt that he'd snatched his hand away. Does he not like me anymore? Did he ever like me? Or was it all just a game? All those thoughts raced through my head in a split second, and as I felt the tears welling up, I forced them away. I switched back to my default of being emotionally detached from the world so I wouldn't get burned. What is it? Aren't we going? I bluntly asked.

It's not that cold, is it? I think, grasping his outstretched hand. Standing up, I say, Okay, there has to be a diner around here somewhere. I carefully walk on the ice towards the town, dragging Ryu with me. I'm going to be here awhile so why not enjoy it? Tomorrow is going to just be a snow day. I thought, smiling.

The nicknames only served to anger her more and she retaliated by fighting those who picked on her after school. Aoife had on several occasions

We ran up the spiraling steps. They seemed to never end. I finally saw the top and sprinted ahead, running into the blinding white light. That's about the time when I slipped on some ice and slide into a snow drift. Bursting out laughing, I tried several times to get up and kept slipping, causing me to laugh even more until I couldn't even attempt to stand. N-note to...self.... be sure to make ice skates!

Of course! Follow me. Aoife started walking towards the diner a few blocks away.

The girl laughed. It's okay. Why don't we go to my friend's diner? I'll pay.

Are you hungry? Aoife inquired.

The redhead giggled. It's okay. You don't have to tell me right now. My name is Aoife, she aid with a grin.

Are you okay? It's fine if you don't want to tell me, you know.

Hi! The newcomer grinned. I haven't seen you before! What's your name?
